Digital turn-based strategy RPG

Blackguards is a downloadable roleplaying strategy game published by Daedalic Entertainment. It delivers a story-driven campaign where a band of misfits and criminals must save a threatened world. The game activates through Steam and requires a Steam account for installation and play. Activation is restricted in several countries listed in the specifications.

Runs on modest hardware without sustained strain

The turn-based combat and pre-rendered environments place light continuous demand on the processor and graphics card. Minimum requirements call for a 2 GHz dual-core CPU and an Nvidia GeForce 8600 GT or ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT. Recommended specifications suggest a 2.4 GHz quad-core CPU with a GTX 275 or Radeon 4770 Series for smoother performance. The game uses DirectX 9.0c and needs 20 GB of drive space.

Low thermal and power impact in normal play

With modest system requirements the title generates little heat or fan noise during typical sessions. Minimum memory is 4 GB RAM on both Windows and Mac, and the Mac version requires OS X 10.7 or higher on Intel-based hardware. The Steam DRM layer adds negligible overhead. Buyers who need offline activation or regional availability outside the supported list cannot use this code.

Questions about this item

How much heat and fan noise should I expect from the GeForce 8600 GT or Radeon HD 2600 XT when running Blackguards for hours?

The game only needs a GeForce 8600 GT or Radeon HD 2600 XT at minimum; those cards draw modest power, so heat and fan noise stay low during long sessions.

Do I need a Steam account before I can activate the 36368 code?

Yes, a Steam account is required for activation and installation of the download code.

Will Blackguards run on my older PC that still has a GeForce 8600 GT and Windows XP 32-bit?

The minimum specs list Windows XP 32-bit, a 2 GHz Dual Core CPU, 4 GB RAM and a GeForce 8600 GT or Radeon HD 2600 XT, so that configuration meets the baseline.
